Everything fell to pieces when my eyes met yours In that hospital gown And the dreams we once were dreaming, that we held so close Felt impossible now
And all the plans we held for the future And all the memories up from the past The world that I once knew was in a cardboard box In the lobby lost and found
Hallelujah, nevertheless Was the song that pain couldn't destroy Hallelujah, nevertheless You're my joy invincible Joy invincible, joy Joy invincible, joy invincible, joy Joy invincible, joy invincible
Tears were in my eyes when the phone rings If only life didn't need us to be this brave But we don't live in the world of if only's Stretched tight in between our birth and our graves
Hallelujah, nevertheless Was the song that pain couldn't destroy Hallelujah, nevertheless You're my joy invincible Joy invincible, joy
Open your eyes Look to the skies We are the children of the promise
Hold to what's real Everything heals We are the children of the promise
Open your heart Look for the sparks We are the children of the promise
Love is your place Feel the light on your face We are the children of the promise
Tears were in my eyes when the phone rings Maybe it's Your joy that's giving me strength
Hallelujah, nevertheless Was a song that pain couldn't destroy Hallelujah, nevertheless You're my joy invincible Joy invincible, joy Joy invincible, joy invincible, joy Joy invincible, joy invincible, joy You're my joy invincible, joy invincible, joy
